    Questions about DMing Gardmore Abbey

    I plan on running some version of Gardmore Abbey in the near future. The deck of many things looks pretty interesting. So, in general, I'm just looking for any tips from folks that have run this adventure. More specifically, I plan on leveling this adventure up for level 9 players. Can you...

    System to determine what is for sale in town

    This is a system I've come up with to see what a given town has for sale. I didn't want to draw up a list of every item the town's magic shops and magic craftsmen have in stock.

    Terrible Encounters Session

    Last night I had a terrible Encounters session that I wanted to share. My girlfriend had been wanting to get into DnD, so I figured an Encounters session would be perfect. We go down to my FLGS last night and the DM I had played with last season had a full table, so we played under a DM I...

    Okay, I mainly made this thread so I could share the joke I played on my players, not that I expected any of them to fall for it. I am DMing a 5th level 4E group. We have a few Google Waves we use to communicate. I updated one of our waves today with this: The characters I made for them had...

    So my players are not ones to sit back and let things happen (a good thing). They just got done kicking a group of bad guys out of a town, and left to their own devices they would go to the town this group comes from (about a week away) and fight them some more. I have an adventure that will...

    New Published Adventures?

    I'm not seeing any adventures on the D&D products calendar. What gives? Are they not making any adventures any time soon, or do the adventures just not get as much build up as the books? I like being able to buy a nice printed booklet and a map.

    The big boss guy runs away, how do I make this not feel like cheating?

    I am running an adventure based on the Harkenwold adventure in the DM's Kit. In the next session the players will fight the big bad guy for the first time. This encounter will mark the end of a battle where his troops were marching against the PCs and the townspeople. The idea is the bad guy...
